The P3BFDC3090 Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit leverages a three-pole module with a plug-in design to deliver balanced, reliable protection across busway sections. The business impact is faster installation, reduced wiring errors, and easier replacement during maintenance, which minimizes downtime on production lines and data centers. It is ideal for modular power distribution in manufacturing facilities and large commercial builds where quick reconfiguration is essential. A 90A amperage rating paired with interrupt ratings of 200 kAIC at 240 Vac, 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 35 kAIC at 600 Vac ensures robust fault handling even in high-current scenarios, reducing nuisance trips and protecting critical loads. This device supports busway protection with plug-in convenience, lowering total cost of ownership and simplifying spare-part logistics. Compliance and safety are reinforced by UL 857, CSA, and ANSI/IEEE certifications, while NEMA-compliant housing enhances durability in harsh environments. Grounding options include 50% integral or housing grounding, providing installation flexibility and reliable protection across diverse layouts. The compact dimensions (12.36 in L, 21.2 in H, 5.43 in W) and a 25 lb weight enable straightforward rack mounting and easy integration into existing enclosures. Warranty follows Eaton’s 25-000 policy, offering a clear path to service and support.

FAQs
The P3BFDC3090 is designed specifically for Pow-R-Way III busway protection and uses a three-pole plug-in configuration. It integrates with standard busway layouts, simplifying mounting and reducing wiring complexity. Its plug-in design enables quick breaker swaps, minimizes downtime, and supports modular expansion in industrial power-distribution schemes.
Key specifications include a 90A continuous amperage rating with interrupt ratings of 200 kAIC at 240 Vac, 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 35 kAIC at 600 Vac. This range provides robust short-circuit protection for motor loads and equipment across typical plant electrical systems, reducing the risk of cascading failures.
Yes. With interrupt ratings up to 200 kAIC at 240 Vac, the P3BFDC3090 is well-suited for industrial environments with elevated fault currents. Its three-pole design ensures balanced protection across phases, and its busway compatibility minimizes exposure to fault propagation and downtime during maintenance or upgrades.
The unit carries UL 857, CSA certification, and ANSI/IEEE certifications, with NEMA-compliant housing. These certifications support regulatory compliance, safety assurance, and reliability in industrial power distribution applications, making procurement easier for projects requiring formal approvals and traceable performance.
Warranty follows Eaton’s policy 25-000: one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This provides protection against defects and predictable maintenance planning. Regular inspection, correct grounding choices, and proper plug-in replacement practices help optimize uptime and lifecycle costs.
